Manx Masters Medals

Three Manx Harriers athletes have enjoyed a great weekend competing at the British Masters Indoor Championships at Lee Valley in London.

Ewelina Hand was the gold medallist in the women’s 40 age group triple jump, and in the process recorded her first-ever leap of more that 10 metres with 10.05m.

She joins a small and select band of female athletes from the Isle of Man to achieve that landmark.

Masters Medals

In addition, Ewelina won the bronze medal in the long jump with a season’s best of 4.51 metres.

She was also speedy in the sprints with 8.77 seconds in the 60 metres and a big personal best of 28.94 sec in the 200 metres.

Sarah Halligan was the bronze medallist in the 40 age group 400 metres, with an excellent time of 66.88 seconds.

She also set a time of 28.72 seconds to win her 200 metres heat just ahead of her club-mate Ewelina Hand.

Daniel Stewart-Clague also had a great weekend with two medals in the men’s 35 age group.

He was the silver medallist in the 60 metres in a time of 7.21 seconds, and took the bronze medal in the 200 metres with 23.07 sec.

Congratulations to all three for their performances.
